Death Penalty Study

We meet every Monday at 6 pm at PAR 101.
Come join us for our next meeting on October 15!

Punishment NOT Death;

Humans, drowning in their pride, have always played God, yet this is the most extreme case of their egoism – the right to judge who lives and who dies.
Death is not punishment as many presume. Death does not instigate fear in everyone as many presume.
True it is that some crimes are unforgivable, then don’t forgive them. But don’t kill them, don’t introduce your bias and personal opinions into making this decision.
It is interesting how we jail someone for murder and cause the death of someone ourselves.

The UT chapter is dedicated to helping those whose voices are unable to be heard. Whether it be writing a letter of protest for a prisoner of conscience or handing out petitions, we want to spread awareness all around UT's campus and beyond.
Anyone can make a difference. Whether is it big or small, it will lead to progress for the betterment of human rights.
